Not gay, or at least, probably not.

I'm straight, but I've been seeing this girl. She's beautiful and a socialite and I've been feeling conflicted about being seen in public together. More inside... A month or so ago I broke up with my boyfriend of a year. As I began once again to enjoy the untethered life I started to go out with my friends, and I met some really interesting people. You see, this is the first time I've really ever gone out while single, and I didn't expect it to be as easy as it was to meet people. One of these new friends is a girl who I find amazing. She's smart, multilingual, funny, easy going, absolutely freaking gorgeous and for whatever reason she is interested in me.

We have a lot of fun together, enjoy a lot of the same things, even think things at the same time pretty frequently. We've even been romantic together, and it went pretty well as far as those things go. But, after a few nights out with her friends (who I love) in local bars word has spread that I am *gasp* playing for the other team. Exes have called me, my coworkers somehow found out, even my boss. It's not that I even mind that much, I know for me that this is just a phase, a time for me to experiment with a different kind of relationship with a different kind of person.

So here's my question-- is publicly experimenting as I am ill-advised? Has anyone else ever had any experiences like this, gay or straight?
